Quite within the memory of all readers to-day there is clearly recalled the time when the province of a monthly magazine or a weekly periodical was purely to entertain, or occasionally to enlighten the public on some more or less abstruse scientific or semi-philosophical subject. As a medium for the dissemination of high-class literature, of fine fiction and of the once omnipres ent essay, there was nothing to equal the periodical publication. But the American public need something more potent in the monthly magazine, and although this need was scarcely recognized by the people at large, it was per ceived and met by the editors of the popular magazine. By “popular” is meant, in a great measure, the moderate priced magazine, and it is a signifi cant fact that the ten-cent magazine undertook the first of a series of deeply absorbing and deeply serious articles. McCLURE’S. This was “McClure’s,” published at ten cents, and the first of a large number to follow’ the example of Frank A. Munsey in the matter of a popular price. McClure’s was not doing as well financially as its management desired —Munsey was outstripping it in the matter of circulation; at that time, too, Munsey’s contained almost exclusively, a class of exceedingly light fiction. Maybe that was the secret of its first success, but wisely enough McClure’s did not follow the same beaten track made by Munsey and many contem porary publications. A “Life of Lincoln” was begun in McClure’s by Miss Ida Tarbell—a magnificent work and one which commanded the attention of the world. Soon thereafter, the circulation of McClure’s began to increase with marvellous rapidity, and when Miss Tarbell’s Standard Oil series began, the entire reading world was waiting with eagerness for the months to pass which would bring the great chapters of this “exposure” of unusual and nefarious commercial methods. No great serial novel ever met with a more cordial re ception by the general public, and the same may be said of Mr. Lincoln Stef fen’s “Shame of the Cities,” which also appeared serially in McClure’s. These were the beginnings of a great REVOLUTION IN MAGAZINES.

So many are anxious to assist in mission work, if they only had money, that I think it my duty to give my experience, believ ing it will not only add thousands of dol lars to church funds, but also remove ti><‘ sting of poverty from many homos. 1 be lieve any person who will try, can make from $5 to $8 a day selling medicat 'i gloves. They are wonderful sellers. So cheap, only 30 cents a pair: so durable and you cannot have sore Iv.nds if you wear them. Nearly everyone buys them, and a girl or boy will sell as many as a woman or man. Tell people you will giv« 1-4 of your profits (or whatever share you can afford,) to church work, and many will buy. who would not otherwise, so you would make more than you would if you did not donate to the church. God blesses those who work and also give. Address the Common Sense Mfg. Co., St. Louis.
